Just be grateful you found out before you married.

[JerubbaalgodSlayer]

Girl! You dodged a bullet! So glad that woman contacted you about him so you could give him the 🥾 🇨🇦

[PomsNTomsMom]

It's better to find out then than 24 hours after "I DO".

[janicesmith]

At least she found out at the start of her engagement.

[Sofonisba]

Michelle has such a strong and resilient personality. She deserves the world and I'm heartbroken for her. She is such an angel and I hope she finds someone that loves her right.

[Katie-sfjt]

The ex-finance’s behavior says everything about him and nothing about you. You are worth cherishing!

[kathrynthomas]

Poor lady, she deserves better. She must be feeling broken. Her whole world has fallen apart. Shes clearly trying to keep it together. Very brave of her to talk on tv.

[davidrogan]

She got a lucky escape. Never take him back. He's sorry he got caught.

[CJG]

“I don’t think there was a lot of thought…” if he was on a dating app then there was a lot of thought.

[gogoincognito]

Michelle Elman’s writings have made such a huge impact on my life. Really grateful to see her on TV and will continue to support and listen to her tremendous wisdom. Her speaking on this has helped me unpack my own experiences with infidelity (from parents to being cheated on myself). My heart goes out to her.

[Bekka_boo]

Before I met my now husband I was engaged for a year, he broke it off for no reason at all over 10 years ago.
It does change you but it makes you a stronger person. You deserve all the happiness in the world, it’s his loss x

[VABeachgirl-npiw]

Think of this as a blessing not a curse.

[hzliqzb]

Well done her for telling people once a cheat always a cheat he would’ve cheated during the marriage too only sorry been found out a liar she wouldn’t do that to him she deserves better 💖

[camellia]

It’s awful they were living together - makes it so much worse.

How awful he went on a dating app when he was away on a business trip.

[ashleyclutinger]

😢. I hope she find her prince charming

[byfaith]

This lady is amazing, thank God this guy fumbled she deserve better💯

[Lovesapuzzle]

When a person believes it is OK to deceive, they don't appear suspicious. Once found out, they only regret that they've been found out. They don't regret the harm they did. It doesn't matter to them.

[originalmings]

Why does the woman in the white dress seem so happy to hear about all this 😒

[saynabomer]

You can tell she’s heartbroken, man this is hard. I pray God gives her someone better ♥️

[ninazuccaro]

Michelle, I haven’t read your work but now I really want to! I’m so sorry you’ve gone through this. You are so lovely and bright!
